Southtown Road cycle, pedestrian and bus improvements may come in at less than £550k and
remaining funds could be reallocated to other schemes emerging from the £2.4m Sustainable
transport priorities brief

Cycleway scheme linking park to seafront is likely to cost the allocated £210k. Are the group happy
to proceed to detailed design and construction? The complementary public realm enhancements
mentioned at the last meeting can be further considered as part of the Great Yarmouth sustainable
transport work.

Emerging proposals are compatible with the Carter Jonas Masterplan team ideas and within the
total budget £2.21m. Are the group happy for this to be taken forward for implementation?
The Great Yarmouth Transport and Infrastructure Steering Group were uncertain about this scheme
which had been in the Capital Programme and therefore put forward for LGF funding. Merits of the
scheme will be reviewed as part of the £2.4m Sustainable transport priorities brief and the £100k
funding for 2016/17could be diverted to bus stop improvements to ensure we meet the spend
LGF profile. Future bus stop improvement sums could then be used to implement this scheme at a
later date if it is felt worthwhile.
A scheme within budget has been determined and to be taken forward for implementation in
2016/17. Are the group happy for this to be taken forward for implementation? Possible subway
lighting improvement to be discussed with Highways England.

This scheme represents bus infrastructure improvements similar to those implemented in other
urban centres in Norfolk. A brief has been prepared and priority routes determined. Are the group
happy with the nature of these improvements and an implementation programme to
commence? These can be delivered by an NCC partnership with FWT who have successfully
delivered improvements in Norwich https://www.fwt.co.uk/wpcontent/uploads/2014/04/norwich_study_sm.pdf

Feasibility proposal from Mouchel (£35k) to be completed by autumn 2016 and using the Great
Yarmouth Transport and Infrastructure Steering Group. This will yield a costed list of possible
improvements to be presented to steering group for agreement.
(An additional access into the Southtown area via Thamesfield Way will be considered as part of
this work)
Mouchel have commenced initial work on Outline Business Case and first deadline is to submit a
bid to DfT for major scheme development funding by 31 May 2016. If successful this will provide
about £1m in 2016/17 to prepare an Outline Business Case
This £390k is from NCC capital programme schemes that are not being taken forward. Ideas for the
£170k 2016/17 spend are sought to ensure money is not lost.
